Humm. Since the instructions on the page are broken (cvs and not subversion, the build.properties.defaults include sites and urls that are out of date), perhaps the page should be removed. Or a disclaimer should be added to the page saying that the 5.0 series is not actively maintained and that developers should persue the 5.5 line.

Ok,  Is 5.0 a valid build target, or is its usage discouraged?

I was following the build instructions for building tomcat 5.0
    http://tomcat.apache.org/tomcat-5.0-doc/building.html
the build.xml that it provides use CVS tags to extract the 5.0 bits.

You can build 5.0 if you need to. You'll just need to modify the
build.xml a bit. If you have the choice, go for 5.5. Very little has
happened on 5.0 for a while - the focus is on 5.5 and starting 6.0
